Dioceltian, this young woman suffered martyrdom. According to
legend, her family forced her into a marriage with a pagan,
but she denied him, intending to convert him. Her husband,

faith. While she was in prison the devil pestered her, trying
to get her to obey her husband, and she struck him with her
chains. In the end she was beheaded.

near her or chained to her feet. She is invoked against
contagious diseases.
